The gubernatorial debate between Gov. Ron DeSantis and former U.S. Rep. Charlie Crist has been postponed due to Hurricane Ian, with no makeup date yet scheduled.
News station WPEC News 12 had been set to host the debate, the only one scheduled between DeSantis and Crist, on Oct. 12 in Fort Pierce.
“The move to postpone the debate is meant to ensure all Floridians have an opportunity to adequately recover from the storm and watch the debate,” the station wrote on its website
The debate management team was working with both campaigns for a makeup date later this month, the station wrote. The station could not be reached for further comment.
